    La France, troisième du classement des pays exportateurs d’armement dans le monde

    Selon le dernier rapport du SIPRI, les livraisons d'armes sont restées stables dans le monde sur la période 2016-2020 par rapport aux cinq années précédentes, avec une évolution contrastée selon les pays. La France, troisième exportateur mondial, a vu ses livraisons augmenter de 44% en volume en 2016-2020, ce qui représente 8,2% du marché. Plus de la moitié (59%) du volume de ces livraisons étaient destinées à trois pays : l'Inde, l'Egypte et le Qatar. Les Etats-Unis, leaders mondiaux, ont augmenté leurs livraisons, à +15%, et ont fourni des armes à 96 Etats, dont près de la moitié en volume (47%) au Moyen-Orient (24% pour la seule Arabie saoudite). Deuxième plus grand exportateur mondial avec 20% du marché, la Russie a vu ses livraisons baisser de 22%, recul essentiellement lié à la baisse de ses ventes d'armes vers l'Inde. La France se classe devant la Chine, qui a diminué de 7,8% ses exportations d'armes, et l'Allemagne, qui a, elle, augmenté ses exportations de 21% et compte la Corée du Sud, l'Algérie et l'Egypte parmi ses principaux clients.
